A change of pace!

Annette Lamb in her 8W's model, published in the book, The Blue Book of Information Age Inquiry, Instruction and Literacy, commented that in the webbing stage one question may lead to another. Initially, I wanted to compile an annotated bibliography of Welsh litereature and film. I researched IUCAT and found some interesting prospects.

While literature is vital, I felt that inorder to give an accurate annotated bibliograpghy I would have to read all these wonderful books. I wouldn't mind doing that, but it would take an enormous amount of time. Therefore, I have decided to research the questions I asked in the wondering phase. I am actually excited about changing the pace a bit. I decided to present my information in a for of a story, but more on that later.

Inorder to find this information, I could always use the internet, but at times it is difficult to determine what information is correct. I will rely on the interney some, perhaps I will the ask an expert function Annette Lamb sugested. I believe, however, my best bet is to use Almanacs, books and articles about Wales.

I will search IUCAT, then some of the electronic journals we have. For some of the information I may use a good old encyclopedia. Now I will set off on my quest. Wish me luck!
